A planar polygon is convex if it contains all the line segments connecting any pair of its points. Thus, for example, a regular pentagon is convex (left figure), while an ...

Geometric objects lying in a common plane are said to be coplanar. Three noncollinear points determine a plane and so are trivially coplanar. Four points are coplanar iff the ...

The Dirichlet lambda function lambda(x) is the Dirichlet L-series defined by lambda(x) = sum_(n=0)^(infty)1/((2n+1)^x) (1) = (1-2^(-x))zeta(x), (2) where zeta(x) is the ...

The elliptic hyperboloid is the generalization of the hyperboloid to three distinct semimajor axes. The elliptic hyperboloid of one sheet is a ruled surface and has Cartesian ...

The elongated pentagonal gyrobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(39). The unit elongated pentagonal gyrobicupola has volume ...

The elongated pentagonal orthobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(38). The unit elongated pentagonal orthobicupola has volume ...

The pedal curve of an epicycloid x = (a+b)cost-b[((a+b)t)/b] (1) y = (a+b)sint-bsin[((a+b)t)/b] (2) with pedal point at the origin is x_p = 1/2(a+2b){cost-cos[((a+b)t)/b]} ...

The center of an inner Soddy circle. It has equivalent triangle center functions alpha = 1+(2Delta)/(a(b+c-a)) (1) alpha = sec(1/2A)cos(1/2B)cos(1/2C)+1, (2) where Delta is ...

The case of the Weierstrass elliptic function with invariants g_2=0 and g_3=1. The corresponding real half-period is given by omega_2 = (Gamma^3(1/3))/(4pi) (1) = ...

An exact sequence is a sequence of maps alpha_i:A_i->A_(i+1) (1) between a sequence of spaces A_i, which satisfies Im(alpha_i)=Ker(alpha_(i+1)), (2) where Im denotes the ...
